Code P0340
Hi everybody! New at this forum and I'm trying to figure out som stuff here. I'm having a problem with my cam sensor on my 98 ford ranger 4.0l OHV Engine. First it was a real pain to get it out and now when I look at it it's seems to be ok. No cracks, no corrosion and the magnet is in good condition. It has 3 pins and I'm wondering how to measure it with a multmeter? Also the connecter? witch colors go to what and how to test it? And do I have to find the dead center on the engine even if I just removed the sensor and haven't cranked the engine or nothing?
many thanks for all advice!

Welcome to FTE.
I see you don't have any replies yet, so I'll see if I can get things started.
Here is a link with info about P0340 & what to include in your trouble shoot.
http://www.obd-codes.com/p0340
Here is a link you can use to extract wire color codes, ect. Search Wiring Diagrams
Tell us more about how the vehicle was acting & if the problem came about slowly over time, or suddenly after some event?
Post up All trouble code clue Numbers, as they can offer up good trouble shooting clues on where best to look next.
Some beginning thoughts for consideration, let us know how it goes.
